This Crochet Along is very much about Christmas, as it is a Christmas Tree Hat Scarf that will be made in 2 parts. This Crochet Along, aka CAL, is sponsored by DMC yarns. The yarn they provided for me is the Natura XL yarn which is incredible easy to work with and very soft also.
During the CAL, first you will make the actual hat that is very long and can be used as a scarf. Next you will make the ornaments and add the surface crochet lighting before putting it all together.
I will provide everyone about 1.5 weeks to get all your materials together so we can all make this Christmas Tree Hat Scarf together. Part 1 of the pattern will be released December 2nd. It is very fun to make and as it features ornaments I am actually very excited to see which colors you will pick for them.
MY LATEST VIDEOSFurthermore, I add some battery operated LED lights which of course is optional. I happen to have some and they just made the whole Christmas Tree Hat Scarf come all together. However, it is to note that the lights plus the batteries might feel heavy and pull down the hat scarf a bit.
I designed this Christmas Tree Hat Scarf such that the pattern can be easily adjusted to any head size that it is needed for as the pattern is made bottoms up. Once you have the ribbing finished the hat is decreased every so often until it is really long.
Then the following week we will add the ornaments which I decided will only be flat Christmas Baubles as this hat is also used as a scarf and it can be hurtful to have large sphere like ornaments hanging around you neck.
Furthermore I decided to use hot glue to attach all the ornaments as it would have taken to long and would have looked as neat if I would have sewn them all down. That way you wont see sewing lines and the ornaments look very pretty in every spot you glue them on.
